I wasn't sure what to expect from a massage, or how I would be received by you. You put me very much at ease, and I felt very comfortable and accepted. When I left you I felt very relaxed, and my back was much better. I would estimate that my back was 90% better when I left you, and I continued to improve even more. I had no residual soreness from the massage the next day. I look forward to coming back, and I have been singing your praises to family and friends. I wanted to thank you because it occurred to me that you wouldn't really know how much you helped me. I couldn't be happier with my experience of being massaged by you.
Again, thank you SO much.

Dorian has now fixed three problems areas for me. When I first went to her, I had a chronic neck problem that had bothered me for years. She fixed that in one session and it has been great since. More recently, I was having rotator cuff pain, and went to my physician. He sent me to 12 sessions of physical therapy, and there was slight improvement. The next step would have been an MRI, and it looked like I was heading for an operation. One session with Dorian, and she fixed that as well. Since then I've been very active with throwing and have had no problems. My last visit with her, she worked on my other arm that was feeling weak and would go dead on me when I played basketball. Now that's back to normal. If you have a muscle related problem, you should see her as soon as possible.

Dorian's approach to the massage she gives is about the client and much more intuitive. She works the muscles and identifies my trouble spots, altering what needs to be done to address my problems or areas that need more attention than others. In particular I have to recommend Dorian as a “preferred” massage therapist for athletes. In a day when too many massage therapists are giving the “spa” massage or the “fluff and buff” massage, it is nice to know you have someone who is truly addressing specific needs. The highest praise I can give a message therapist is simple—they are intuitive and they know where you need time spent by feeling what is going on…reading the muscle and your body. I consider Dorian a true resource, helping me to prevent injuries and to help maintain greater muscle health.

I have had massages from Dorian since the start-up of her practice. Prior to that I had many massages by many other Massage Therapists. There is absolutely none better than Dorian. She is very versed in all aspects of Massage Therapy and is extremely thorough in her approach to the individual needs of each client. Recently, I underwent a major back surgery requiring a 9 day hospital stay.The operation lasted 7 1/2 hours. I required Spinal Fusion, a disectomy, spinal de-compression, and a major Facet Joint repair. Dorian provided excellent care for me prior to the surgery in order to minimize the pain that I was encountering. Dorian will continue to help me with the healing process along with the necessary relief that I will require in the future. I highly recommend that you give her. I assure you...You will not be disappointed.

I made my first appointment with Dorian after reading her press release in the News Bulletin. When I arrive at her home for my appointment she always greets me promptly. The room she uses for the therapy is very comfortable, private and allows for enough room to get ready for the massage. I spend a lot of time flying and driving for work so I really appreciate Dorian’s ability to work out the kinks in my neck and lower back. She is presently helping me with a muscle I strained and feel it has healed much faster because of the massage therapy.

Dorian, Thank you very much for such an incredible 90 minute massage! Being a professional golfer for 20 years has led to many painful spots and you helped them all. I have been to literally dozens of different therapists across the globe and I am thankful to have found the best of all only 10 miles from my home. Looking forward to becoming one of your completely satisfied regular clients going forward.

I had been going to Dorian for over 4 years. Prior to having Dorian work on my back I had several other massage therapists who, while good, did not match her expertise. With the calming music she provides to accompany her massage I find myself drifting off into a state of relaxation that carries over for the remainder of the day. I strongly recommend Dorian as a massage therapist.

I had a pregnancy massage with Dorian and it was wonderful. She was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable about how to massage during pregnancy. She was very careful to keep me comfortable. The massage helped to alleviate my aching back and legs and was so relaxing. I highly recommend it to everyone, pregnant or not!

Dorian, I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed the massage. It was wonderful and I don't think I have been that relaxed for a long time. I didn't have any aches or pains in my shoulder or back at all and never had need for an icepack. So I guess the pressure was just right. Sure felt great.
I will be calling again for an appt soon. I really do appreciate it.
